what could cause the network to talk and tie up the system and cause the cpu to dip ??
the network goes up the cpu goes down . I tried to put a screenshot in the message but no go

How can you be sure Rosetta is the source of the high bandwidth/download reduction in CPU usage?

To post a SCREENSHOT:
1) You FIRST MUST SAVE IT TO YOUR HARD DRIVE as a BMP or JPG file (MS Paint can do that for free)...
2) THEN UPLOAD IT TO AN IMAGE HOSTING SERVICE (such as Photobucket, etc)...
3) THEN POST A LINK IN YOUR MESSAGE TO THE ON-LINE IMAGE using the "img" BBcode tag.

not sure what is causing the network tap but its about every 12 seconds - and causes my average cpu to be 90 % . how would be the best way to turn off task ? I was thinking suspending . and I will try to get the screenshot done next week

How much cache of work do you have?

Or are we talking about something non-BOINC related?

it may be non boinc but it hurts the boinc cpu usage I have 8 gig of ram and typically use about !/2
I just need to get the pics loaded .

• Have you done a thorough AntiVirus/Malware scan of your PC?
  
• Is your internet connection on a Wi-Fi/Wireless USB dongle or a Hard-Wired ethernet port? If it's USB, that can be "stealing a few cycles of CPU resources".
  

Download Process Explorer, UnZip the exe (procexp.exe) from the download to a folder/directory (preferably to your User folder/directory) on your hard drive and RUN Microsoft/SysInternals Process Explorer (procexp.exe) as Administrator.

Once running, click View, Show Process Tree; click View, Show Unnamed Handles; click View, Show Process From All Users. This will show you EVERY PROCESS RUNNING ON YOUR PC and will help you determine what is stealing CPU cycles when there is network access.

Process Explorer Description:

Ever wondered which program has a particular file or directory open? Now you can find out. Process Explorer shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.

The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you'll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you'll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.

The unique capabilities of Process Explorer make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work.
